I have two favourite crazy dogs in Tim's Crazy Dog stamp set. One of them is this Vizsla because I'm Hungarian and the Vizsla is Hungarian too. The other one is the Miniature Schnauzer or at least I think that is a Schnauzer. And I also like the French Bulldog, but of course, the others adorable too - I really don't want to hurt the other dogs' feelings :-)

I was looking for the ideas how to keep our summer treasures - especially our huge (more than 12cm) seashell - where they are not hidden in a box, where we can see them in their full beauty, where they can be emphasized.

A "Thank you" card is always handy! You always need one when you want to express your gratitude to someone. I made many thank you cards and I also made many cards with these roses but this is a new version of my previous thank you and rose cards.

Hello everybody and happy Monday! I'm here with a black and white canvas with a splash of colour, a bold red umbrella. For this canvas, my inspiration was my previous black and white canvas with Tim's umbrella man.

And since I made two Paris cards last week, I insisted on the Paris theme too.

Although it was a primed canvas, I put one layer of gesso on the surface and when it was dry I tapped the different shades of grey onto the canvas with a sponge.

It's quite minimalist but I like it this way, so I didn't want to ruin it with adding other cutouts or text.

And since my background is ombré, I would like to join the Simon Says Monday Challenge: Ombré

This card was made for the challenge of the Frilly and Funkie: Neutral point of view. Actually, this was a real challenge for me as I've never made a card before just with neutral colours. But I had to try it.

He is sexy, indeed, in his straw hat, red glasses and polka dot shirt. Not to mention the grass stem in his mouth :-)

So whenever I looked at him this silly refrain came to me every time: I'm sexy and I know it... I'm hopeless, I know :-)

Actually, this card was made for the May challenge of the Country View Challenges - Be humorous! - and this time I will be your hostess :-)So please use funny and/or crazy images with funny and/or crazy texts! I also appreciate the puns! Please surprise us and make the CVC team laugh!

Be humorous! - this is the theme of the May challenge of the Country View Challenges. And I'm so lucky that this time I will be your hostess!

I would like to get to know your humorous side. So please use funny and/or crazy images with funny and/or crazy texts! I also appreciate the puns! Please surprise us and make the CVC team laugh!

For making this card I chose a heavyweight (30o gsm) paper. With Tim's stencil and with a texture paste of big grains, I created a brick wall background.

When it was dry, I inked the edges with grey ink (Ranger Archival Watering Can) and I inked a little the bricks as well. The bird was stamped on 300gsm watercolour paper and coloured with Ranger Distress markers (Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold).I also stamped the bird onto the walls because when I fussy cut the bird I cut off her fluffy downs. The text was created by me with Phosphate fonts and I printed it out.

The stamp is from PaperArtsy Zinski Art Zinis ZN32.Now it's your turn, so if you have a fun project, please don't hesitate to join our May challenge where you can win a £20 voucher!With my card, I would like to join the:- Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Time Out- Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes
